CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I wish I were a tree.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that our technology has surpassed our humanity and I wish we could all go back to a simpler way of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted couch surfers, have not surfed any couches yet, but plan on doing so soon.

Interests

I'm interested in living life like it matters while being careful not to take anything too seriously. I'm also most interested in being the best person I can be so I can leave positive impressions on the people that deserve and reciprocate the same sentiment.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about all that makes NOLA a great city, and all that NOLA has left to be desired. With a city this complex there are many problems (even more possibilities), many personalities, and a whole lot of good times. "New Orleans, where the streets go one way, the boys go both ways, and the girls are down for a three way." - Robin Williams
